So, I built a home store for my friend and I would love feedback on it.
Feel free to check it out, I will put some pictures below and you can see if you like it or not!
(I forgot to add this is my first build in a long time so that’s why it’s not great.)
I was also wondering, how long should I wait until I start commissions.
Thank you for reading, and have a good day.
I suggest learning to use custom textures, but other then that the build is great and if I needed something I built I would definitely consider hiring you!
Looks really good! Here are a few things I would change:
Use a different texture for the ceiling. I feel as if the current texture would more often be used for flooring. Instead, try to find a wood texture with long, horizontal shapes that might look like beams supporting the floor above it.
Add some more decorations on the exterior of the building. In the area out front, I would add some gardens for bushes or trees, and maybe some benches as well.
Add some struts supporting the staircase. Right now it appears as if certain steps are floating. Unless this decision was intentional, I would add some metal struts below each step to make the staircase look more realistic.
As for your question about how long you should wait until you start commissions, I would say that it can’t hurt to start as soon as possible! Things might be slow at first, however, until you develop a larger portfolio.
